email accounts

I have an email address attached to my account. -- PBS (talk) 05:02, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am assuming you are using the default skin (if you don't know what I am taking about you are). Go to the user's home page look at the left hand side of the screen after "User contributions" you should see "E-mail this user". I presume you will see it even if your own email address is not set in your preferences. -- PBS (talk) 19:57, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ahoy

Oh, it was a combo of things. I also had a General Election over here to work on, and University to juggle, not to mention getting a bit ill. I'm sure I will return to wiki poking as my course ramps up again this autumn. --Narson ~ Talk • 19:23, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:Hb 42.50.8.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Hb 42.50.8.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:40, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My Tag on Fletcher Class

I tagged the intro on the Fletchers as too short. I did this because although the article was quite detailed and thorough, it just seemed to me, and still does, that the intro was too short. You improved it considerably and commented that I should have done this rather than tagged it. So did I do something wrong here? Busaccsb (talk) 02:55, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, just looked at this again, and the article was not as detailed as I thought. Looking back on this, I would not have tagged it. So don't feel like you have to respond if you don't want to. Busaccsb (talk) 03:05, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just read your response. Thanks. Ironically, this was the first time I have ever tagged anything.Busaccsb (talk) 17:00, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fletcher-class drawings

These drawings look suspiciously like drawings in the Friedman book, and I don't see any attribution or mention of copyright. This is a copyright violation,isn't it?Busaccsb (talk) 21:08, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I never assumed you did the article, just contacted you because you are more experienced in the Wikiworld than I am. If they are from the book, they are not from the revised edition, although the full drawing of the ship is identical to the drawing on p. 127 of the revised edition (except for which ship is pictured), and the cutaway is very close (but mirror image, not as expertly done, and some notational differences) to the drawing on p. 116. I hope you have access to the earlier edition.Busaccsb (talk) 07:22, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
